Blood Oath Pact No. 5 Bourbon Whiskey

Blood Oath Pact No. 5 Bourbon Whiskey

John Rempe has been developing and blending spirits and beverages for over 20 years Rempe, who serves as Luxco's Director of Corporate Research and Development, has a B.S. in Biology and is a Certified Food Scientist, and helped develop some of Luxco's most well-known whiskey brands such as Rebel Yell and Ezra Brooks. Rempe believes that blending whiskies comes with the luxury of not being tied down to a single distillery, which provides unlimited options for exploring and creating the exact flavor profile he's seeking. Blood Oath Bourbon Pact No. 5 is an eight-year-old, high rye sourced bourbon that's been finished for half a year in ex-dark Caribbean rum barrels, married with an 11-year-old, high wheat bourbon, followed by a 13-year-old, high rye bourbon for the final blend. This complex combination results in a well-balanced, spicy, sweet, lingering bourbon with complex flavor notes. When selecting these bourbons, I knew the dark rum sweet notes would be a perfect complement for these well-aged bourbons, and the result is extremely satisfying. On the nose, Pact No. 5 comes right off with dark fruit notes, brown sugar and a touch of orange zest, followed by sugar cane and dark chocolate notes and a little heat once you sip it. This one offers a lingering finish, accented by notes of honey (John Rempe, Lux Row Distillers Head Distiller, and Master Blender). Pick up your bottle today!
